🔥Welcome back to Whisky Whistle! 🙌
Discover the Aberlour 12 Year Old Non Chill Filtered — a 48% ABV Speyside single malt matured in American oak and sherry casks. In this detailed whisky review, Mark explores the nose, palate, finish, sulfur notes, mouthfeel, and the impact of adding water to this non chill-filtered Scotch whisky.

Does non chill filtration really improve whisky texture and flavour? In this review we also discuss:

* Chill filtration vs non chill filtration
* Sulfur in sherry casks
* Natural haze (“Scotch mist”)
* Sherry influence in Speyside whisky
* How Aberlour 12 NCF compares to standard Aberlour 12 and A’bunadh

⚖️ Whisky Whistle Score: **/100

🎯 If you enjoy unique, sherried whisky, or exploring non-Scotch single malts, this one is worth a look.
